Cakes and puddings, it's Christmas time
Snow and parties, isn't it divine?
But jolly old Santa who brings us toys red and blue
Is never seen on a normal day. Santa where are you?
Are you at home in your comfy chair
Hugging your favorite teddy bear?
Ho Ho Ho do you laugh and sway
because of the funny memories of the past Christmas days?
Are you training Rudolph to carry you across the sky
So in your comfy little slay, you could smoothly fly?
Are the reindeer having fun? Is Rudolph's nose still red?
Santa please do answer me or are you sleeping in bed?
Are you watching your favorite TV show,
answering questions as with presents you go?
Whatever you bring me crayons or clay
Do pay a visit on Christmas day!
